Zine Displays

Every year, Learning Zone staff creates multiple themed zine displays to showcase zines in our collection. Please enjoy browsing through some of the past displays. We hope it will inspire you to visit the OCAD U Zine Library in person one day. Zines without a linked call number are in the process of being catalogued and are not yet available on the shelf.
